Gorgeous! I often think that Queen was and still is a band of wizards! Their music has an eternally medicinal and magical effect on the audience and the soul! Queen was way ahead of their time! Brian is beyond description he is such an incredible Renaissance man and just a beautiful human being in general! It's beautiful that, in concert, Brian sings "Love of my life" solo in honor of Freddie and enthusiastically encourages the crowd to sing along "do you want to sing? Let's sing this for Freddie, ok". He'd say "don't be shy" and also encourage everyone to get out their iPhone lights reminiscent of back in the day when people held lighters. Near the end, a video of Freddie from this concert appears on a screen and sings the last part. Often, Brian would be seen wiping away a tear afterward in honor of his friend and brother in arms and probably so touched that people still go totally nuts for Queen.
I adore your Queen reactions. So heart-felt. Yes, this song is beautiful & amazing. If I may recommend you also enjoy the actual album version again. In it's official intro, Freddie opens with a very fancy flourish on the keyboards and Brian comes in playing a harp!
Researchers ( Czech, Austrian and Swedish) at a Czech University led by Christian Hebst. studied Freddie’s voice and found he had a faster vibrato than other singers. His was 7.04 Hz and most singers was 4-5.4 Hz. He was also able to use subharmonics using ventricular folds in his throat a technique only found before in Tuvan throat singers. He also did have a great ear and could sing a perfect C note meaning almost perfect pitch. They concluded his unique way of singing created a vocal pattern completely unique and recognizable not to mention pleasant to most listeners.
Freddie & Brian were a great collaborative force. This song is a great example. They completely reworked it for the stage. Freddie introduced the song by saying “this song has turned into a duet, bc that’s the way we like it.”
Enjoyed the reaction.. I loved your real , down to earth emotional response to it . And very much liked the educational bit you inserted on relative Vs Perfect Pitch. Nicely done to the max. Freddie was certainly one of a kind that I have not seen the likes of since.
He never explained who it was for But he had met David and was spending most of his time with him from mid 75 David said theyd dated 2 months and made him tell mary but didnt say when They were together in 76 probably end of 75
like the eye make up and why cant men wear it, woman do too look better? i play guitar and brian may is on a different level his solos in somebody too love and bohemiem rhapsody are classic!
Nice reaction! Freddy Was the greatest front man in the world!!! But...I think Roger Taylor has the best voice in Queen and his solo records are really good.. Just my opinion..
No, imagine Roger singing this song. Yes, Roger has good voice, but not good enough and appropriate for most of the Queen ´s songs and he knew it. That ´s why he and Brian /good voice too/ have been looking for a lead singer. But these three guys together - the most beautiful harmonies

Classic Freddy. He meant every word of this song. You can’t help but see him as a person in this song, not just the entertainer he is. ❤️
Such a mesmerizingly beautiful song, Thank you for your reaction.

I love this song
Glad to see you dolled up again.
One of my favorites by Queen!!!
I read he wrote this song to the woman he lived with in his 20s.
He never explained who it was for
But he had met David and was spending most of his time with him from mid 75
David said theyd dated 2 months and made him tell mary but didnt say when
They were together in 76 probably end of 75
Yeah, Mary Austin.
Thanks, Tenor... and Brian on that 12-string.. Brian such a key person in this band... love your reactions...
